The DTA-266 AMRLT Firecracker is the rocket terradyne of the Crayven Corporation in Ground Control. Rocket terradynes can engage both ground and airborne targets although it cannot lock onto infantry. It is fairly slow and lightly armored.

A well balanced battleforce routinely attaches support terradynes to its core units of main battle terradynes. The DTA-266 AMRLT is an excellent support terradyne capable of defeating both terradynes and aerodynes. It is not intended to be deployed in the frontlines but rather behind the protection of more armored terradynes such as the Wolf or the Grizzly.

The Firecracker’s primary weapon is the Crayven OSI-L2 - Hurricane Air Defense Anti Tank Missile System. It is equipped with the latest Crayven TrueSight targeting modification that establishes a direct neural link between gunner and missile. The gunner is able to target and fire with minimum response time and with extreme precision. Once the missile is airborne it locks onto the targets alpha emissions. Since humans alone do not generate enough quantities of alpha emissions, the missiles cannot establish a lock-on and are considered harmless against infantry.

The light Meshed H2 armor fitted to the Firecracker does not provide enough protection against enemy anti-tank weapons. The nature of the ADAT missile system allows the Firecracker to use other vehicles for protection as its missiles are launched high into the air before striking down on its target from the above.
